How should I store the kettle?

Troubleshooting

Kettle does not whistle

Ensure the lid is securely closed and the whistle cap is properly seated. Check if any debris is blocking the whistle spout. Boil water and listen carefully; the whistle may be quieter if only a small amount of water is used.

Water heating slowly

Ensure the kettle is placed correctly on the hob and that the hob setting is appropriate. Check that the base of the kettle is clean and free from residue that could impede heat transfer.

Enamel chipping or scratching

Avoid dropping the kettle or striking it against hard surfaces. Use non-abrasive cleaning tools. Minor chips on the rim or base may not affect functionality but should be handled with care.

Handle feels loose

Check if the handle screws are tightened. If the handle is significantly loose or damaged, discontinue use and contact customer support.
